The recovery was completed, but Fan did not leave the refrigerator immediately. Instead, he opened the system panel inside.

You completed a glorious hunt and received [Ancient Dragon Ecological Item Extraction] x1 [Higher Ecological Item Extraction] x1. Also received: a large recovery potion, a secret potion, a large explosive barrel, a strong walking potion... and several other items.

[Your transformation entry [Dragon Slayer's Essence] has achieved a breakthrough and upgraded to [Dragon Slayer's True Essence]]

Your Ancient Dragon-level entry, Black Dragon Virus, has achieved a breakthrough and has been upgraded to Black Dragon Virus Lv. 2. All Mad Dragon Virus carriers gain the activatable ability: Chaos Fury.

After seeing the spoils of this hunt, even though he had already prepared himself mentally, a hint of excitement still flashed in Fahn's eyes.

Not to mention the various supplies, the main thing is that the medicine is really easy to use. Taking a large amount can quickly stop bleeding and heal wounds through life energy, restore physical strength, and this process is extremely fast, just like the legendary panacea - considering that things like secret medicine are indeed items obtained by ancient dragon people through alchemy, there is really no problem in treating it as a panacea.

Without any nonsense, Fane directly clicked to draw.

Congratulations on obtaining the Ancient Dragon Ecosystem [Steel Dragon's Storm]

Steel Dragon's Storm: Using its horns to spread the unique biomagnetic field of the ancient dragon ecosystem, it can generate terrifying hurricanes and continuous storms capable of snapping trees at any time. When fully activated, the biomagnetic field is loaded to the limit, and the storm can surround the body, forming an invisible armor. It can also continuously pressurize the air to form a fault, releasing a high-pressure wind cannon capable of shattering rocks. When proficiency is reached, it will be upgraded to [Steel Dragon Disaster Palm].

Seeing the new ancient dragon ecology, there was a hint of excitement in Fan's eyes.

Steel Dragon, also known as Wind Flying Dragon, is one of the three main ancient dragons in Monster Hunter. It appears frequently and is a familiar face to hunters. While it's one of the most widespread ancient dragons, it's incredibly powerful and its whereabouts are difficult to predict. Even the scholars of the Dragon Calendar Academy can only detect Steel Dragons by observing storms with telescopes after arriving in the sky via airship. Its mastery of storms often triggers extreme hurricane-like conditions wherever it appears. Depending on the region, it can trigger storms, blizzards, sandstorms, and other natural disasters, earning it the nickname "The Ruler of Bad Weather."

The name "Steel Dragon" comes from its iron-luster scales, rich in minerals. The scales of some older Steel Dragons are considered the finest abrasive material due to their hard texture and the special abilities bestowed by their ancient dragon ecology. The scales of ancient Steel Dragons transform into precious Steel Dragon Stone. Adding Steel Dragon Stone to forgings greatly enhances the durability of weapons, preventing them from weathering over time.

Mentally reciting his equipment, Faan could clearly sense the wind currents in his surroundings. He could manipulate the surrounding storms through neural signals. Even with just a simple estimate, Faan was certain that he could now walk the battlefield without fear of arrows or explosive bombs. Protection from arrows? That could be developed.

Beyond its protective capabilities, the force of the wind also significantly increases Faan's speed. Controlling wind currents allows Faan to ignore most of the wind resistance caused by shifting wind directions, and can wreak havoc on large-scale battlefields by unleashing storms and sandstorms. Even against single targets, the compressed high-pressure wind cannon can inflict considerable damage...

Compared to the Black Dragon's virus, the Steel Dragon's storm is not so complicated. It is like an all-purpose weapon, and its power can be seen at a glance.

At the same time, as long as the mastery is completed, it can be directly upgraded to the complete form, unlike the Black Eclipse Dragon, which needs to continue fighting to transform before becoming a true adult Tianhui Dragon.

Thinking of this, Fan nodded with satisfaction and clicked on the upper-level entry to extract it.

[Obtain the higher-level entry [Explosive Dragon's Explosive Gland]]

Exploding Scale's Explosive Glands: The body fluids secreted from the sweat glands have the same ability as the explosive scale's explosive glands. After being equipped, the metabolic body fluids produced will produce a terrifyingly high temperature. After coming into contact with the air, they will cool down and expand the outer membrane, solidifying into huge explosive scales.

Seeing the extraction of the higher-level entry, there was a hint of surprise in Fan's eyes.

While not an Ancient Dragon, the Explosive Scale Dragon's ecology is indeed comparable to that of an Ancient Dragon. While the Explosive Scale Dragon's battles with most Ancient Dragons often end in defeat, its ability to escape unscathed from these encounters demonstrates its superior ecological niche. More importantly, the Explosive Scale Dragon's ecology is compatible with that of the Wind Dragon.

After a Dynamaxer's explosive glands secrete explosive scales, they don't explode immediately upon contact; instead, they require additional pressure. Therefore, Dynamaxer often releases a large amount of explosive scales, forcibly detonating them through the wind pressure of its dive. With Steel Dragon's Storm, Faan can directly detonate them.

It can even be said that there is no need for the Steel Dragon's Storm as a conductor. It only needs to secrete some Dragon-Breaking Slime when releasing the Exploding Scales to form a mixed high-pressure bomb.

One was born from a missile design prototype, and the other was born from a bomber design prototype. The fact that these two can work together is simply very reasonable.

But then again, I have to find a way to improve my defensive performance.

Faan thought to himself—during the battle with Kalurel, Faan had used Dragoncrush slime mold extensively to amplify the damage of his attacks, and used explosions to force deflection during high-speed movement. But Dragoncrush slime mold was no harmless creature—an adult Dragoncrush slime mold, once detonated, could easily kill a young Dragoncrush. The first Dragoncrush hatchlings were incredibly soft to the touch, while the hard carapaces of adult dragons were largely self-evolved through constant explosions.

According to research by scholars at the Dragon Calendar Academy, a significant portion of Broken Dragons are unable to adapt to the slime mold's explosions and grow hardened scales, ultimately being killed by the slime mold. For those Broken Dragons that do grow, their scales melt in the constant explosions, fusing with more minerals and becoming even harder. Rather than being naturally hardened, they resemble thick scabs.

Chapter 210: Evolved Black Dragon entry.

Both Blastoise and Shatter are known for their explosive damage, but the two dragons handle the impact of the explosion in completely different ways.

The Broken Dragon will continue to grow with the intensity of the slime mold explosion. This gives the grown Broken Dragon both formidable defense and attack power. However, the price to pay is that if its growth rate cannot keep up with the speed of the slime mold explosion, it will be killed by its own slime mold explosion.

Although the Exploding Dragon can also be hurt by its own exploding scales, its special body structure can effectively reduce the impact of the explosion - but precisely because of this, the Exploding Dragon's scales are far less hard than those of the Shattering Dragon.

Because a Shatter Dragon uses its hardness to withstand damage, while a Blaster Dragon uses its toughness and subcutaneous fat to mitigate damage from explosions. If a hunter detonates a Blaster Dragon before its scales activate, the unprepared dragon will also be harmed by its own scales. If its scales are pre-detonated, a Blaster Dragon without them will become a larger flying dragon.

The two synergistic explosive methods undoubtedly greatly enhanced Fann's destructive power. But now, Fann, thinking carefully, only the fat skin of the strange dragon could be used to reduce the damage he suffered from the explosion. Although the ice bag of the dragon could form ice armor, once attached, the explosive scales would not be produced.

Well, as the only ice attribute that Faan currently possesses, due to the elemental conflict, Faan is already preparing to remove it and replace it with other attributes...

Although I can withstand attacks with my enhanced physical fitness in the transformed form, I will still be hurt if I get too close... I have to find some terms that enhance my defense and don't conflict with explosion and fire elements.

Thinking of this, Fan also focused his attention on the other two gains.

The essence of the Dragon Slayer was upgraded to the true essence of the Dragon Slayer. This was simple to explain. It allowed Fane to develop more powerful physiological organs during the Dragon Slayer transformation process, such as a complete set of blade tails, a complete digestive system, a complete cooling system, mineral scales covering the entire body, etc. Instead of just picking and searching the fire dragon's body to transform into a partial dragon, as before.

What really concerned Faan was his first Ancient Dragon entry, [Black Dragon Virus]

This thing gave Fane a headache at first, but after confirming that he could control its activity, Fane began to use it boldly.

The Black Dragon's virus had been upgraded to Level 2, adding a new ability called 'Chaos Rage.' Even without clicking on the details, Fane had already guessed the effects of Chaos Rage. Upon clicking on it, Fane's face was filled with anticipation.

What about Black Dragons? They're so detested by everyone, even their own kind wish for their demise. After the first Sky Dragon is born in a region, all other Black Dragons are forcibly sterilized, halting their evolution. Those in the process of molting are stuck in this state, half Sky Dragon, half Black Dragon, known as Chaos Shenshen, or, as players jokingly call them, Oreos.

This Chaos Singer's power surpasses that of an ordinary Black Dragon, making its viral attacks and combos even more deadly and ferocious. However, this isn't a good thing, as the Chaos Black Dragon endures extreme pain constantly and will soon die from the intense pain and organ failure.

Every other dragon is playing Monster Hunter. Only the Black Eclipse Dragon is playing PUBG. Except for the first place, everyone else is a brow pencil. The top ten become Oreos, and the rest are sterilized on the spot, with no future. Even a cautious and law-abiding life is useless. Even if someone reports it, the Hunter Guild will immediately dispatch its men to hunt it down. Finding a place without other dragons and simply saying "I'm going to sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep" won't work either, because you can't control the scale dust flying everywhere, and a hunter will smell it and come after you.

The new ability, Chaos Fury, is to fall into a frenzy like the Chaos Black Dragon for a short period of time, and feel extreme pain and an extreme desire to fight during the process.

Uh...bloodthirst? Black rage?

Blood Angels? When did they arrive?

Fortunately, this switch can be turned on and off manually. Thinking of this, Faan breathed a sigh of relief. If this thing was out of control, then the moment he completed his promotion, the Freljord's extreme war priests would fall into a chaotic frenzy due to the connection with the Mad Dragon Factor.

While Lissandra could have simply frozen them with a single "Bury!" and formed them into a Death Company, throwing them onto the battlefield with the Frozen Slaves when needed to thaw them out and let them go on a killing spree, these warriors were, after all, from the various tribes of the Freljord, and their sudden disappearance would inevitably lead to rumors. Especially since he was about to head to Demacia after completing his current tasks, Faan felt more at ease with these war priests remaining behind to maintain order in the united tribes.

Confirming his harvest, Faan knocked on the ice wall with satisfaction. Seeing this, Kailuerer also released the Zhenbing hibernation chamber.

But looking at Faan who had just walked out, Kailuerer hesitated for a moment, then said suspiciously: "You... didn't use your full strength just now?"

"Why do you say that?"

Faun blinked.

"Your aura has become even stronger."

Kailuerer shook his head and said, "Compared to when you fought me, your aura is at least two-thirds stronger... no, at least three-fifths stronger."

As he said this, Kailurel also knocked his front hooves on the ice valley beneath his feet, making an ethereal echo.

"This is my home turf. I can't hide the changes in you...at least not part of them."

"I see, you're right."

Faan nodded decisively and said, "Fighting with you has taught me a lot. I hope you won't mind my offense during the fight... By the way, can your horn be healed? Is there anything I can do for you?"

Upon hearing this, Kalurel stared at Faan for a few seconds, then shook his head with some pride and said, "Who do you think I am? I am the descendant of Anivia, a true god. It's just a broken antler. It will grow back after a few days of rest."

"I see. As expected of the great Kailurel."

Feeling Kailurel's little pride, Fan also smiled and said something auspicious.

Although Kalurel didn't say it out loud when he heard himself being called "great", Fane could feel through his spiritual perception that Kalurel was very pleased.

Nodding with satisfaction, Kailuerer said, "Okay, little guy, you can tell me what you came to see me for."

211

Chapter 211 Departure.

After hearing what Kalurel said, Fane touched his chin and did not answer immediately.

It was frustrating to hear such a graceful female voice asking what he wanted to do, but Faan's first reaction was "Ai." But after looking at his own figure, Faan decided it was better to be conservative—mainly because Kailuer's voice was so deceptive.

If it was the old woman sent by the bear people for marriage alliance... hehe.

Directly impotent.

In response, Kailuerer said in a slightly speechless tone, "Well... let me remind you, although I can't read your mind, this is my home turf. I can more or less sense your inner thoughts."

Upon hearing this, Faan said apologetically, "Uh... I'm sorry, I can't control this subconscious reaction. It's mainly related to my weapon."

Fane patted the flying dragon sword on his back.

"No need to apologize. I understand your mortal instinct to obey life."

Kailuerer didn't care much: "Of course, if it was anger, I might be able to empathize more."

Invisibly, Kailurel seemed to be a little unhappy and curled his lips, even though there was no mouth structure on Kailurel's head.

Well, it's obvious that this has to do with Ornn. After all, from Carlos's perspective, Ornn, the uncle, is quite unkind...

Thinking this, Faan straightened his expression and then explained his purpose for coming here. After learning that Faan came here for the Frozen Tears, Kalurel did not hesitate, but nodded and said, "Come closer to me."

Upon hearing this, Faan's face showed a hint of surprise, and he approached Kalurel. Kalurel gently lowered his head and placed it in front of Faan. As his round, icy white eyes appeared before Faan, a faint, watery light soon appeared above them. A moment later, it dripped directly into Faan's hand, forming a teardrop of ice.

"This is the frozen tear you wanted."

Kailurel said so.

Faan's face was filled with surprise, and he couldn't help but ask, "You're just going to give it to me like that? Don't you think... I don't need to do anything?"

"No need. I can sense my mother's presence in you. Although you may not have noticed it yourself, many people do see you as the hope of the Freljord... Well, these people must be of high status, otherwise their presence wouldn't be so strong."

After a pause, Carolle asked curiously, "Have you come into contact with anyone? Let me guess, Lissandra? I remember her. Although she also coveted my mother's remains, many people do regard her as a savior."

"Well... Lissandra is indeed one of them."

With a forced smile on his face, Faan said, "I originally thought I would need to bring the three Ice Sisters to you before you would give me your tears... I didn't expect it to be so simple now."

"The Three Ice Sisters? You united with them?"

After hearing what Fane said, Kalurel seemed very surprised, and the voice in his heart was filled with a hint of exclamation.

"…almost, in a more connected way."

Having said this, Fane did not explain in detail, because after the previous communication, Fane already knew that Kailuerel did not understand the emotional issues between humans... Just like Orn, Orn did not understand why Kailuerel attached so much importance to his mother's ashes.

It was obvious that Anivia was not dead, she was just some metabolic products of the reincarnation process, and he was just recycling the waste by taking it away.

Explaining this difference in worldview was far too complicated, and Faan didn't want to waste too much time on it. Instead, he asked directly: "How can a spirit who has lost herself due to the imbalance of the Freljord be helped to find herself again?"

"Wait for my mother."

In response to the question, Kalureel calmly said, "When my mother returns, all problems caused by the imbalance will be resolved. But at the same time, this also means that a new test is about to befall the Freljord. If it is now, my tears can also restore it to its original state."

Kalurel explained, "The so-called frozen tears are actually the refreezing of the melted True Ice that makes up my eyes. However, compared to ordinary True Ice, the power of hope within them can calm the imbalance between wildness and civilization."

"Okay, thanks for your help."

Hearing this, Fan nodded gratefully.

Although it sounds like a polite remark, in fact, apart from the hunter's love for hunting, Fane still respects Carol and the Ice Crystal Phoenix Anivia.

Whether it's Faan, the Hunter's Guild, or the Ancient Dragons, they all advocate for the harmonious coexistence of all things in nature—except for lesser creatures like the Tenkai Dragon and the Black Eclipse Dragon, which the Hunter's Guild often expel unless absolutely necessary. In the Monster Hunter world, however, many people worship dragons as gods, as these ancient dragons have indeed built stable ecosystems, ensuring that humans can thrive in a near-utopian world of harmony and support.

On this basis, Anivia's actions and contributions to this ice field are enough for every ancient dragonman to sing praises.

In comparison, I was exiled to Runeterra just for standing someone up. Miss Mira's quality is ridiculously low, and I strongly despise her.

Even though I had replied first, saying "see you there," and then immediately boarded a ship bound for the New World, it was still absurd to be banished to a place full of evil spirits just for standing him up.

After silently complaining about Miss Mira's inhumanity, Fane said to Kailuer: "If that's the case, then I'm leaving now."

"Let's go, I need to rest for a while too."

Kailuerer nodded and seemed to yawn. Although the result of this battle was somewhat beyond her expectations, she obviously enjoyed it very much.

"Don't forget to come and play with me if you have time... Well, the three sisters have reunited, and my mother should be waking up soon. I'll come and play with you then."

"Welcome~"

After waving to Kalurel, Fane turned his gaze to the magic book, and then returned to Ornn's forging hall.

"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."

Chapter 1: Departure to Demacia.

Back at Ornn's forge, Faan took out the Frozen Tear and said, "I'm glad I've fulfilled my mission."

Seeing the huge ice tear in Faan's hand, Ashe and others who were originally ready to go to the True Ice Valley to meet Kalurel also widened their eyes in surprise.

Taking the Freezing Tear, Ashe couldn't help but wonder, "Is it resolved? I thought it would take some more effort...at least some negotiation."

"Basically solved."

Faan shrugged and said, "Actually, Carolel is easier to talk to than I thought. After smelling Anivia's scent on me, he was willing to help. Well, we did fight, and I gained a lot from it."
